Biochemical Parameter Derangement in Commercial Broilers during Heat Stress and Their Mitigation using Ascorbic Acid Supplementation

Ascorbic Acid and Citric Flavonoids for Broilers Under Heat Stress: Effects on Performance and Meat Quality

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of increasing doses of ascorbic acid (AA) and citric flavonoids (quercetin and rutin) on the performance and meat quality characteristics of broilers submitted to cyclic heat stress. Four-hundred one-day-old female Ross 308 were housed in 40 battery cages a in temperature controlled room. Treatments consisted of 0, 250, 500, and 1000 g/ton on of...

Onm-2: Effect of Antioxidant Supplementation Like Ascorbic Acid, Vitamin E and ?-Carotene Supplementation on Semen Quality and Biochemical Parameters

Effects of Ascorbic Acid and Acetylsalicylic Acid Supplementation on the Performance of Broiler Chicks Exposed to Heat Stress

A total of 100, day-old broiler chicks were randomly divided into 5 equal groups and kept under elevated temperature (93-97F) to see the effect of ascorbic acid and acetylsalicylic acid on the feed conversion ratio (FCR), immune status and ratio of weight of bursa, thymus and spleen to body weight. Heat stress increased the FCR but decreased the immune response and ratio of bursa, thymus and sp...

Modulatory Effect of Monochromatic Blue Light on Heat Stress Response in Commercial Broilers

In a novel approach, monochromatic blue light was used to investigate its modulatory effect on heat stress biomarkers in two commercial broiler strains (Ross 308 and Cobb 500). At 21 days old, birds were divided into four groups including one group housed in white light, a second group exposed to blue light, a 3rd group exposed to white light + heat stress, and a 4th group exposed to blue light...

Effect of Ascorbic Acid and Acetylsalicylic Acid Supplementation On

A total of 100, day-old broiler chickens were randomly divided into 5 groups and kept under elevated temperature (34-36EC) to see the effect of ascorbic acid and acetylsalicylic acid (Sb-Asper-C, a commercial product) on the feed conversion ratio (FCR), immune status and ratio of weight of bursa, thymus and spleen to body weight. Heat stress increased the FCR but decreased the immune response a...
